As you may know, in the United States, Congress is passing the Health Care Bill Reform that would require most people living in America to have Health Care. Though there are some exceptions to this mandate (illegal immigrants and certain religious individuals) the Bill is reforming the country as a whole.
Divulging into the Bill, I think it has both positive and negative affects. To understand the Bill I read numerous articles online that are geared to break down the bill, its time line, and the individuals who would be incurring costs.
Overall I think the Bill will prove to be extremely beneficial to the greater American population because many people would be eligible to have financial aid support them in efforts to acquire this new health care. The only draw back is that healthcare taxes would increase for the extremely wealthy in order to provide funds for the lower and middle class Americans.
Another positive for the health care industry is that they will be bombarded with young and generally healthy individuals , who probably wouldn't have gotten insurance before, which would account for the money the industry losses because they would not be able to deny coverage to those individuals with preexisting conditions.
Examples of preexisting conditions are cancer diagnosis and pregnancy, which in my opinion are conditions which insurance should definitely cover no matter when the person gets the policy.
Although some people don' t agree with the bill, I am definitely for it because its a dramatic change that the U.S.A definitely needs.
Rauf I begin to go back in my mind to the fidelity incident and Tiger Woods apology to his fans. Abdul-Rauf played in the NBA years ago, and in March of 1996, refused to stand during the Star Spangled Banner for his religious beliefs. Abdul-Rauf, a born Muslim, didn't feel the necessity to stand and uphold the tradition of honoring God.
